IDEAL INDUSTRIES INC. 61-025 Volt Aware Non-Contact Voltage Tester, Clear and Compact Voltage Testing, CATIV for 1000V

I like that i can keep it in my pocket or side pouch and does not have an on/off button to accidentally keep getting pushed. Any (real) electrician with work seasoned hands can still twist this on or off with 1 hand just as quick an easy as any other hot stick, but entirely eliminates accidental on/ off button presses or how some hot sticks the buttons are just act funny after a while. Like theres no mistaking when this one is either on or off. Used on the job for about a week now and real happy with it, does the job accurately. Will update if it doesnt last more than a year.

So far, so good. I like how positive everything on the device is; there's no guessing or hesitation in its use. The twist design is a lot better than squishy buttons that are hard to press with gloves on. The design of the lights (solid green for no voltage detected and flashing red for voltage detected) is also much better than the blinking/solid indication design found on most other NCVDs. I don't have to second guess whether the detector is on or if a wire is live when I see a flashing light for a moment, again, everything is very positive. I work in a pretty rough industrial environment, so its durability will be tested and I will update the review when/if it fails.

Reliable concerning off/on. Not as finicky and untrustworthy as others I’ve used. I’m a licensed electrician… I’m very easy on my tools. The tip broke off of this when I used it to push a few conductors to the side. I think the tip is a bit weak and that’s frustrating. If I were to design one of these I’d use the hardest plastic possible AND even reinforce it with fiberglass or similar. They definitely didn’t do either. Overall it’s a great tester if you are careful with the tip. Just the tip.

Great tool

amazing! good long battery life! easy to use. loud beep, so you can leave it on the wire and go to the panel in the basement and still hear the beep so you know when you flip the right breaker

This item worked very well until I ran it over with my truck. After that it was pretty unresponsive.

Broke my Ideal and ordered a cheap replacement. Sent it back the same day I received it. You’ll get what you pay for and paying extra for this is so worth it. Works excellent. Don’t take a risk with cheaper item.

I have 4 other voltage detectors, this one is by far the best one, the others are way too sensitive, this one works like it should, you can actually test each side of outlets, very nice to have

Très facile de fonctionnement, durable.

Great volt stick a must for every tool kit to keep you safe
